Outpatient pacemaker procedures.

Abstract:

:Over a 46-month period 181 pacemaker procedures were performed from an outpatient practice. Patients were admitted, operated on and discharged all within a 24-hour period. There were no pacemaker emergencies, major complications or emergency readmissions. The outpatient approach to permanent pacemaker procedures was not limited by the type of pacemaker procedure, pacemaker dependence, patient age or sex. The feasibility and safety of outpatient procedures is demonstrated.

  • Non-invasive determination of cardiac output: comparison of a novel CW Doppler ultrasonic technique and inert gas rebreathing.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Cardiac Output (CO) is an important parameter in the diagnosis and therapy of heart diseases. Inert gas rebreathing (IGR) and continuous wave Doppler ultrasound (CWD) are among the most promising newer techniques aiming at a non-invasive, point of care measurement of CO. A direct comparison of the two method...
